Immunogen: LASS6 antibody was raised against a 13 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of the human LASS6.
The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of LASS6.

Research Area: Homeostasis

Tested Application: E, WB, IHC-P, IF

Application: LASS6 antibody can be used for detection of LASS6 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 μg/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in rat samples; Immunohistochemistry in mouse samples and Immunofluorescence in mouse samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

BACKGROUND: LASS6 Antibody: The LASS (longevity assurance homolog) family members represent a subgroup of the homeobox gene family and are highly conserved from yeasts to mammals. Six members of this family of proteins have been characterized (LASS1-6) and all are involved in ceramide synthesis during cell growth regulation and cancer differentiation. Like the highly homologous LASS5, LASS6 is also an endoplasmic reticulum, multi-pass membrane protein. LASS6 is also involved in the synthesis of C14, C16 and C18-ceramide, but shows a preference for unsaturated fatty acids. LASS6 is broadly expressed in a wide range of tissues and microarray data suggests that it may play a role in cancer differentiation and early embryonic development.
